We defintely have these keys responding as input devices based on bootdmesg:
[ 27.522660] input: Dell WMI hotkeys as /devices/virtual/input/input7 One thing that's confusing me is that you said this works well on 12.04, when in fact this has been a problem for a long time. Unless you installed off a Dell provided pre-install CD/image it's unlikely anything changed between 12.04 and 12.10 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069357 Title: Hardware keys change backlight brightness in much larger increments/steps than expected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1069357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
